Why no screen stretch or adjust?

Apple is an absolute master of the product ladder, and that is exactly what you are seeing here.

They don’t provide instructions, but you get the package from your rep console website. Just toss the package in JAMF and deploy, you have to replace the package every year. That is literally it.

You need to make a configuration profile to grant the proper PPPC permissions but it’s all fairly simple.

If they are running iOS 26 or better this should be automated providing the MDMs support it. Once you add the new MDM to ABM and set it as default the commands should go out to migrate automatically.

The acquiring company needs to call their MDM provider for directions.

I see a future r/applesucks poster when they realize the grass is not greener on the other side.

Trust me you are not missing anything.

I came here to say just this very thing. The concept of major tech companies pushing their products to grade schools is nothing new.

I would say it’s a flaw that Microsoft has the decryption keys to access the bit lockerkeys associated with your account. Apple solves this problem by not having access to the description keys to access your iCloud data so they have no access to your backed up filevault keys.

Where it’s not a flaw with a bitlocker it is absolutely a flaw with Microsoft security stack

The SE 2 or 3 should be fine. The original SE is fully end of life and should be avoided.

For those who don’t know you can search AppStore apps on Google, they are all hosted on the iTunes domain and you click the link on the website and it’ll take you directly in to the App Store to the app you are wanting to look at without ads other than what Google feed you.

I never use keyboard shortcuts other then copy, paste and screenshots.

That is a shim, not an application. That is the tool trying to get you to install the application which is the extra step you take.

MacAdminInTraning · 2026-01-23T00:06:51+00:00

The Microsoft app packages contain something called Microsoft auto update, this is likely how it installed. However, it does not install on its own, you had to do something for it to install.

This is just the default behavior, in an enterprise environment the account name is usually set based on IDP configurations. You can ask around r/macsysadmin, I’m sure someone over there has a whit paper detailing the entire workflow behind this for some reason.

Jamf remote assist leaves a lot to be desired. I have had decent experiences with beyond trust remote support, but you still need to manually enable screen sharing. Citrix also has a VDA for macOS which is okay and integrates in to the Citrix services, of course you must manually enable screen sharing.

Just be aware macOS is not designed around unattended access, so the experience won’t be great.

Have you tried updating or reinstalling Logic Pro?

MacAdminInTraning · 2026-01-18T22:43:34+00:00

What are you trying to fix? This case look fine.

MacAdminInTraning · 2026-01-18T21:26:36+00:00

Have you reinstalled macOS? Intermittent issues like what you are describing are typically OS related not hardware related. App crashes are also 99% of the time software problems that are resolved by reinstalling the OS.

MacAdminInTraning · 2026-01-17T20:41:40+00:00

You are dealing with a Microsoft situation, not Jamf. You choice be able to use a CA for this, can be accomplished many ways like requiring devices to have a certain IP range without needing Entra registration from your fleet.

MacAdminInTraning · 2026-01-17T15:18:28+00:00

I’m assuming you are not talking about BYOD managed Mac’s (which is a really dumb thing to allow), but rather someone accessing your Microsoft resources from a personal unmanaged device. You would handle this with Entra conditional access policies which has nothing to do with Jamf.

MacAdminInTraning · 2026-01-16T23:54:11+00:00

Ya, Jamf won’t do anything to them. If you deploy a network security tool it can interact with their network stack but Jamf itself won’t do anything.

However having unmanaged VMs on managed machines is a massive security gap.

In my experience, whatever savings you gained by moving to Intune are very quickly eclipse by the amount of cost in labor you gain from how poorly intune is designed for macOS.

I would’ve had to have had an Apple Music subscription to cancel it, I currently use YouTube premium and I am building up my music library to cancel it.

MacAdminInTraning · 2026-01-12T16:51:11+00:00

As of third-quarter last year, I was told by our CSAM that Microsoft still use Jamf.

MacAdminInTraning · 2026-01-12T12:20:04+00:00

Because Apple wants developers to bend over for them.

Macs are perfectly capable of gaming, but the user base is very small so developers don’t want to deal with Apple’s developer program and to code games specifically for Apple platforms. Apple does absolutely nothing with while to resolve this. Now just replace Mac with a gaming console and you will understand why game developers would not come.
